That my dad cared about or respected me. After a family dinner, my wife asked me if he always talked about me like that and it just kind of clicked. Things like telling my kid, “If you play too many video games, they’ll melt your brain like your dad” or “why would anyone pay you that much” when I told them that I broke a six figure salary. She made me realize that this wasn’t normal and I didn’t have to sit there and listen to it just because of who he is.

I haven’t spoken to him or really any of my side of the family in almost two years now. Good riddance.

If I want to read Spider-Man, I would probably post the question “where should I start with Spider-Man?” on something like Lemmy and I’d get a dozen different responses suggesting different comic runs or artists. That alone means I’m not getting the full Spider-Man story.

I can go pick up volume 1 of One Punch Man and know I’m at the beginning of a cohesive story.

I migrated over to Lemmy a few weeks ago when the piece of shit Reddit app refused to load any posts but continued to load ads. I have found this community to be far more interactive, kind, and enjoyable to discuss pretty much anything with. I haven’t found a reason to return to reddit at all.

I think I’m going to try siding with the manga readers because it seems to be overwhelming “no” and I’ll watch it at the end!

I’ll let you know what I think. I’m really excited for this one. Thanks for the heads up!

^Paisley, ^which ^is ^a ^fractal.

Ooo, I’ve already read the first handful of chapters of the manga, so I’m not sure if that covers what is in episode 0. Do you think it would have been a better watch through to have it at the end?

My wife sat down and started watching JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure with me on a whim about half way through part one and she’s a bigger weeb than I am now.

This is a good one that I don’t think ever really got advertised at all. Caught me by surprise.

Pretty much anything by Trigger is going to be worth at least a watch through at least once, usually multiple times.

The League of Legends show, Arcane, is some of the best animation I think I’ve ever seen and season two comes out next month.

FLCL and FLCL Alternative are both amazing, I couldn’t get into Progressive.

Mob Psycho and One Punch Man are wild rides. I think OPM is better, but that’s because I’m bald.

JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure is an absolute hoot if you can see the humor in all the over-explanations and goofiness

I’m about to start Dead Dead Demons Dedede Destruction tomorrow. I’m going in blind, but I really love Inio Asano’s other works. Goodnight Punpun changed my life, but really, do not read it if you are already depressed.

I keep editing this because I keep remembering stuff.

Frieren is amazing and makes you feel incredibly close to these characters.

Delicious in Dungeon is Trigger, but a different Trigger than something like Kill la Kill or BNA. It’s slower, comfier, and like Frieren, makes you feel SO close to these characters.

Sounds like Salesforce acting like Salesforce.

I brute forced myself into cleaning up and cooking healthier meals for myself. It sucks, but if you rinse your dishes right after you eat and put leftovers away instead of “letting them cool” or “soaking the dishes”, everything gets so much easier.

If you want a really tasty, filling cheap fall dish that will 100% help a hangover:

Throw some evoo and garlic into a pan and let it go for like a minute. Then throw in a handful of fresh spinach. Then a handful of halved cherry tomatoes. Then two cans of drained cannelloni white beans. Then a cup of heavy cream and a half cup of Parmesan cheese. Salt, pepper and toast some bread.

Buying all the ingredients at once is like maybe $15 and this stuff can be used for anything. I’ve made breakfast sandwiches with these beans, a fried egg, and some Sriracha on an English muffin.

I could probably find one with a little effort but the fatigue is crazy. I can barely keep myself awake during the day and can’t sleep at night.

I think it’s starting to calm down a bit now at least.

Diet changes are one of the major things I’ve been working on that has made the last little bit rough. I’ve been cooking a lot more, primarily oily fishes which I love, but I did cut out the trash sugars and caffeine that I use as a crutch.

Almost daily mackerel and salmon has been awesome though. Saba shioyaki is probably my favorite comfort food and I never realized how easy it was to make. I’ll have to give the actual fish oil pills a try though, thanks!

Try doing puzzles on Chess.com or playing Tetris. Things that make me think on the fly really help with anxiety attacks.

Psoriatic arthritis flared up in my entire body that has made it impossible to sleep or even really exist for the last week and a half.

It would be awesome to just not hurt for a few hours.

Are you my wife? Since we discovered Pluto, our TVs are constantly flipping between America’s Test Kitchen, MST3K, Antiques Roadshow and Jersey Shore if we’re feeling especially rowdy.

There’s also a Mr Rodger’s Neighborhood channel that our we leave running in the mornings for kid and dogs when we leave hah.
